Prague-headquartered ABS Jets plans to further expand its fleet after it has completed new hangar facilities. Vladimir Petak, ceo says: "The new 6,000 square metre facilities will triple the company's currently available hangar capacity and satisfy increasing demand."

The company currently has 11 aircraft having added one a year. Petak says: "In the next two to three years, after the hangar is built, we want to enlarge our fleet faster and continue moving along the same trajectory over the next 10 years in order to obtain optimal synergies between operations and services."

ABS executives recently broke ground to start construction of the new hangar which should be ready for operation by September 2011.
